Simona Simonini (IT) – Capriccio Appassionato

Simona Simonini über ihr piano piece “Capriccio Appassionato”

“Passionate capriccio is a free composition that comes from listening to the Piano Sonata n. 23, op. 57 of Ludwig van Beethoven and she ideally retraces the rise from darkness to light until the appearance of the incipit of the Beethoven theme (beats 19-20) and of the rhythmic and harmonious calls of the Sonata itself. The assonance with Beethoven is suspended in the introduction of a carillon that transports to a bright and serene childish atmosphere of utopia, highlighting, between the two parts of the composition, an opposition that is not real, but transferred to an ideal plane.”
